The Wolf Pack football team hasn't fared well on the field in recent bowl games, compiling a 2-5 record in its past seven postseason appearances, but it has grabbed several victories in the bank account.

While many college football teams lose money on bowl games, the Wolf Pack has consistently added to its coffers during its string of eight straight bowl appearances. In the past seven bowls, Nevada has made more than $1 million, an average of $152,524 per game.

However, Nevada's appearance in Saturday's New Mexico Bowl against Arizona will provide a smaller windfall than the Wolf Pack is accustomed to because of the school's move in conferences.
